What can be done?

Blimey. How did you manage that?

 

I did something simlar to my chinese plywood special.  A friend who repairs guitars managed to apply a maple cleat underneath the smashed bit, then push the wood back up enough to patch it from the outside.  The bass had a black lacquer finish, so it waa essier to disguise once the finish waa smooth.

 

I don't know if that would work on this though.

Chris, a long time ago, someone asked me to repair a similar damage on a classical guitar for almost nothing as he was skint.

 

So after a bit of discussion I proposed him to create a side soundhole and that was it.

 

And you know what, according to him, it sounded better with this side soundhole... Go figure.
